What to focus on

Heard a lady say an absolutely brilliant thing the other day, truly. She said this.

"You know how when somebody tells you not to think of a pink elephant, you automatically think of a pink elephant? The reason why that happens is because there is no mechanism inside of a human soul for don't. There is only mechanism inside of the human soul for do. So when you say, "don't", your brain (0r whoever's you are saying it to) responds with a "do" mechanism. "

This is the most brilliant and amazing thing I have ever heard.

So what is the lesson we can learn from this? The lesson is to not focus on what you don't want to do...focus on what you DO want to do!! Because you are a "do" kind of being! It's how you are created, by God! Don't try to stop bad habits...do good things! Don't try not to bad things...do good things!!!!
